Big Texas Ultra, November 6-7, 2026
The Big Texas Ultra is a two-day endurance event near Georgetown, Texas, on the Lake Georgetown Rim Trail. The race base is Russell Park Trailhead at 2101 Co Rd 262, Georgetown TX. Packet pickup is held on both event days.
The event follows a 15K out and back course and a 50K loop. Course surfaces include rocky trail, jeep road, and some road sections. Reported elevation gain is about 2300 feet for the 50K loop and about 700 feet for the 15K out and back. The 100K requires runners to carry a headlamp for the second 50K loop.
Distances:
- 15K out and back, offered on both days.
- 50K loop beginning and ending at Russell Park Trailhead.
- 100K with championship and non-competitive divisions.
- 15K RUCK with weight requirements.
Ruck weight requirements are specified by body weight. No cups are provided at aid stations so participants must use their own water-carrying system. The event provides aid station food and hydration, course marking and support, photography, finisher awards and event gear. All finishers receive a Big Texas Ultra finisher medal and a long-sleeve; additional awards include ruck patches, buckle options for 100K finishers, and prize money for the 100K championship. The race is part of the Texas Ultra Series, whose finisher medals combine to form a map of Texas. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
